Platonic Leap je vizualno-performativno delo Ive Suhadolnik Gregorin, katerega subjekt je vsebina odra. Projekt se razvija vzporedno s sestrskim projektom, plesno predstave z naslovom Platonic Dances Alje Branc Barbosa (
https://ptl.si/september-2025/2025/8/15/alja-branc-platonic-dances). Platonic Leap v svojem bistvu preizprašuje vlogo fotografa ob, na in za odrom ter si prizadeva to pozicijo predrugačiti. V okviru tega umetnica zavzame vlogo performerke v produkciji Platonic Dances; uteleša lik, ki »igra« vlogo fotografa. Kot vizualna umetnica se vključi v odrsko improvizacijo in se vključi v središče dogajanja, namesto da bi skušala ohraniti nevtralno oko opazovalke. Avtorica se tako znotraj dogajanja na odru uveljavi kot soustvarjalka odrske vsebine poleg plesalvec Alje Branc Barbosa, Lare Matee Ivančič in Patrika Kelemena. Razstava v prostoru DUM bo prva različica performativne razstave, ki bo materializirala fotografske arhive, nastale v času umetničine vključene vloge znotraj ustvarjalnega procesa Platonic Dances.
Platonic Dances so tako subjekt in primarno okolje v katrem se razvija Platonic Leap; projekta se med seboj od samega začetka prepleteta, meje med njima pa nalašč niso jasne. Platonic Leap preizprašuje mehanizme dokumentarne umetniške fotografije kot medija, tekom procesa pa se performativno dokumentarni material virtualno razstavlja na Instagram profilu @platonic_twins (
https://www.instagram.com/platonic_twins/), ki hkrati služi kot sodobni digitalni arhiv sestrskih projektov.
Razstava bo na ogled le 3.10.2025.

Platonic Leap is a visual-performative work by Iva Suhadolnik Gregorin that takes the very content of the stage as its subject. The project is developed in parallel with its sister project, a dance-movement piece titled Platonic Dances by Alja Branc Barbosa (
https://ptl.si/september-2025/2025/8/15/alja-branc-platonic-dances). Essentially, Platonic Leap interrogates the role of the photographer on/adjacent to, and behind the stage, seeking to redefine this position. Within this framework, the artist assumes the role of a performer in the Platonic Dances production; she embodies a character who ‘performs’ the part of a photographer. As a visual artist, she engages in the on-stage improvisation, inserting herself into the core of the narrative rather than maintaining a distanced observer's perspective. Consequently, the artist establishes herself as a co-creator of the stage content within the performance itself alongside dancers Alja Branc, Lara Matea Ivančič and Patrik Kelemen.
The exhibition in DUM will present the first iteration of this performative exhibition, materializing the photographic archive generated throughout the artist's embedded role within both the creative process and the performances of Platonic Dances. Platonic Dances functions as both the subject and primary environment for the development of Platonic Leap; the two projects are intrinsically intertwined from their inception, with their boundaries deliberately blurred. Platonic Leap critically examines the mechanisms of documentary art photography as a medium. Throughout the process, the resulting performative-documentary material is exhibited virtually on Instagram profile @platonic_twins (
https://www.instagram.com/platonic_twins/), a platform that also serves as a contemporary joint archive for these sibling projects.
Exhibition will be on view only on 3.10.2025
